Shanghai Sports Federation increases doubt surrounding Chinese Grand Prix
The Shanghai Sports Federation has increased the doubt surrounding April’s Chinese Grand Prix by recommending all sports events be cancelled until the coronavirus epidemic “is over”.
The latest figures from the Chinese Health Commission on Wednesday reported that approaching 25,000 people have been infected, resulting in a death toll of near 500, while 15 sports events have so far been either cancelled or postponed.
The most prominent has been the World Athletics Championships that were scheduled for Nanjing in mid-March; the Chinese Football Association has put on hold all domestic matches; while Formula E cancelled its race in Sanya that was due to take place on March 21.
The spotlight is now on the fourth event of Formula One’s record-breaking 22-race calendar this year at the Shanghai International Circuit on April 17-19.
